Join a “Jazz at Sea” journey between the Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean that will be bathed in music thanks to the exceptional presence of Christian Morin, showman and clarinet player. Le Lapérouse will leave Lisbon for an 9-day cruise along the Portuguese and Spanish coasts to Civitavecchia (Roma).
You will embark in Lisbon, the Portuguese capital, located on the banks of the Tagus River. As soon as you arrive in the port, you will be able to admire two UNESCO World Heritage monuments, the Monastery of the Hieronymites and the Belém Tower. You will also enjoy strolling through the streets of this city of seven hills, soaking up the local zest for life.
After a discovery of Cadiz, a brief call in Malaga will allow those who wish to visit the superb site of the Alhambra Palace in Grenada.
This itinerary includes an interesting port of call: Altea and its beautiful church La Mare de Déu del Consol ("Our Lady of Solace"), easily identifiable by its picturesque blue and white domes, tiled with glazed ceramics.
Your will then head to the Balearic Archipelago, with its four main islands that are charming, picturesque and discreet, sitting atop the clear waters of the Mediterranean like grains of sand. After a call at Bonifacio in Corsica, majestically perched on a narrow rocky headland of white limestone, you will disembark in Civitavecchia, the closest harbour to the Eternal City.
